Could I get into any trouble by having it point directly forward?

I don't know how expensive this was to make, or whether there is enough room for two of these reflector lamps on the front of the bike. If you had two and a toggle switch to switch from one to the other so that they were not both on together, that would solve the problem of dazzle on the one hand and good lighting on the other by 'focusing' each on their particular job requirement.
Very sophisticated.

PS giving you full marks out of ten for your 'invention' and quality work, I don't know how I have got the audacity to suggest improvement.
You are going to have a proper 'flight deck' soon.
